When there real big it's either at shutdown or start up when they are actually using the flare stack to combust gas and not just as pressure release valve

The plant has to buy a certain amount of fuel gas from an external company, when the plant trips" or "goes off line" the gas still needs to be used. The only way to get rid of it is to burn it.
A flare with no black smoke is a good indication that it is mostly clean burning fuel gas that is being burned.
